Chapter 2 I am Chen Chunhua
As night fell, Zhang Shan's team settled in the post house. Zhang Shan asked his entourage to rest, leaving only two guards to take turns guarding. In the middle of the night, Zhang Shan gently removed the coffin, patted Yang Mubai's face with one hand, and called softly: "Mu Mu wake up." The other hand was placed on top of Mu Bai's face. Yang Mubai woke up after being confused for a while, and just wanted to scold Zhang Shan, Zhang Shan covered her mouth in time and made a shushing motion: "Mumu, you are a dead person now, don't play with the corpse, there are a bunch of people outside!" ”
Yang Mubai nodded, and felt unrelieved of hatred, and wanted to bite Zhang Shan, but he thought that this bone eye could not grow extraneous branches, so he gave up. Then, with Zhang Shan's support, he gently jumped out of the coffin. Due to Yang Xiangguo's resignation and return to his hometown to retire, the journey from the capital to Luoyang is far away, in order to prevent the smell of corpses, the bottom of the coffin is covered with thick ice. Fortunately, there are also several layers of quilts on it, otherwise Yang Mubai would have frozen to death.
Zhang Shanna took out a set of male guard clothes from the accompanying grain and straw cart and changed it to Yang Mubai, and then took out a box from it, and a woman was lying inside. There are marks of heavy wounds to the head. It turned out that the woman was the daughter of an Orion. I went up the mountain with my father to hunt and met two mountain bandits patrolling the mountain, who wanted to snatch back the cottage to be the wife of the village. The woman refused, so she struck her head on a stone and died. As soon as Orion wanted to fight with the mountain bandits, he met Zhang Shan, who took a shortcut back to the city from the military camp.
The mountain bandits were quickly killed by Zhang Shan and his attendants. Seeing the dead woman, Zhang Shan had an idea, originally Yang Mubai designed to fake his death and bury no one, but now there is a ready-made corpse, which can be foolproof. can also give Yang Mubai a new identity, no need to use it in vain.
So he consulted with Orion not to report the death of his daughter, and gave Orion ten taels of silver. gave the woman's identity to Yang Mubai for use. Zhang Shan informed the yamen that he had encountered mountain bandits, and when Orion went home, he told his neighbors that the former Yang Xiangye had bought a maid and that his daughter had been sold to the former Yang Xiangye's family.
When Zhang Shan gave Yang Mubai the new identity list, Yang Mubai was about to explode: "Zhang Shan, you have a good name, your name is Chen Chunhua?" ”
Zhang Shan told Yang Mubai about the situation, and she said helplessly after hearing it: "What kind of world, go to the mountain to hunt, my life is gone, I thought it was a peaceful and prosperous world now." ”
Although Zhang Shan hated Pei Shengyuan, he still said fairly: "There was a locust plague some time ago, and it hasn't been solved yet. But he's still trying his best to make amends. Even in times of peace and prosperity, there is no guarantee that there will be thieves and rebels. Compared with previous decades, he is still a wise man. ”
After speaking, he watched Yang Mubai react. Yang Mubai didn't have any expression, and went to the next topic: "So, I am now the maid of the family, my name is Chen Chunhua, I have to adapt first." ”
The guards carried Chen Chunhua into the coffin, and Yang Mubai simply ate something. Then he asked Yang Mubai to lie back in the grain and grass box. Yang Mubai was extremely reluctant, and Zhang Shan quipped: "The number of people I have here is regulated, and there is one more person in plain charge, you want him to know that you are not dead, right?" There are a lot of his guards watching outside! ”
Then he patted Yang Mubai on the shoulder and said, "Mumu, I put a few layers of quilts in the box, don't be embarrassed." It's quite comfortable to sleep on. ”
Yang Mubai said to Zhang Shan silently: "I'll clean you up later." Zhang Shan shrugged his shoulders and said yes.
……
After two days of marching, he finally returned to Yang's house. Since Chen Chunhua has been dead for six days, even if the ice cubes are covered, there are signs of decay.
The Yang family has done a good job of mourning, and the two elders of the Yang family cried sadly, opened the coffin and took a look, confirmed the body, and the funeral continued.
Although Yang Mubai was not placed in the royal mausoleum, the queen mother was still unambiguous about the specifications that should be there, and she did it for seven days and seven nights. After entering the earth, the second elder of the Yang family finally calmed down and reminisced with Yang Mubai.
Yang Mubai wanted to ask Yang Xiang several times if he knew the truth about Pei Shengyuan's request to marry back then, but he felt that it was not suitable, so he stopped talking several times.
After lunch one day, Yang Xiang said directly: "Mu Mu can tell me what he wants to ask, now, my father must know everything." Words are endless, tell the truth. ”
Yang Mubai asked all his questions: "Father, did you see that Pei Shengyuan had another purpose in asking me to marry me?" ”
Father Yang was very direct: "Of course my father knows." ”
Now Yang Mubai was not calm: "You know, why did you still agree to this marriage, and you didn't tell me, and helped him ascend to the throne." ”
After thinking for a while, he felt that something was wrong, and then asked, "Why did you resign within a few years after helping him ascend to the throne?" ”
Father Yang smiled with relief: "Mu Mu has grown up!" I don't need to remind me, Mu Mu can figure it out by himself, but Mu Mu doesn't want to think about it, so I'll explain the reason to Mu Mu clearly! ”
"Actually, when Pei Shengyuan tried to get close to you, including sending Zheng Li to get close to you, I knew his intentions. Pei Shengyuan never hid his intentions from me. He promised me that even if he didn't love you, he would lie to you for the rest of his life. He will make you happy for a lifetime. ”
Yang Mubai couldn't help but think that after four years of marriage, Pei Shengyuan really didn't love her, but she was indeed happy, although this happiness was fake. If it weren't for an accidental act of kindness, maybe she would still be stupidly happy to this day. Until he died, Pei Shengyuan really kept his word, and said to his father that he would promise to make me happy for a lifetime, but he didn't guarantee how long my life would last. He's planning not to let me live past thirty! Men are really terrible.
Yang Mubai was puzzled: "Father, you are a former prime minister, it is impossible for him to stand in a hurry because of his so-called guarantee, right?" ”
Father Yang smiled: "Father never stands in line, it is the team that comes to stand on my side." You were married a year after his accession to the throne. At that time, there were former princes, three princes and the emperor vying for the throne. I had been teaching the emperor for a long time, and each of them was assigned different tasks, and among the three people, Pei Shengyuan was the most suitable candidate. He ascended the throne for four years, and his ability to govern the country was not under the previous emperor, and the country became more and more stable and strong. There were no large-scale disasters, and he was a diligent and wise emperor. ”
Yang Mubai still didn't want to accept it, and said angrily: "Then my father can remind me that he doesn't love me, he just wants to use your power to consolidate his strength, if I didn't get so close to him, he wouldn't have ascended the throne so smoothly." ”
Father Yang was puzzled: "Didn't I remind you?" I've reminded you many times that you're not listening. ”
"Mu Mu, he is not a good match."
"Mu Mu, you must experience it with your heart, and don't believe too much what you see with your eyes and hear with your ears."
"Mumu, my father is not around, I can't wronged myself."
"Mu Mu, you are seven years older than him, but you can't just be old and not brainy."
Yang Xiangguo continued: "At that time, you were only immersed in happiness, and you couldn't listen to it. Repeatedly promised your father, did you forget it yourself? ”
Yang Mubai thought of his stupid behavior back then, and really wanted to slap himself a few times. I remember the situation vividly. was really carried away by love, so that he would never find the truth from such obvious clues, thinking that what his father said was not a good match was the age gap.
At that time, he assured his parents like this: "Father, mother, apart from you, Pei Shengyuan is the best person in the world to me, he doesn't care about age, we have known each other for so many years, I believe in him." I will definitely be happy. Accept him. ”
Yang Mubai was silent, and Father Yang continued: "Actually, personal emotions are really nothing compared to the country and the world. Mu Mu, a year after Pei Shengyuan ascended the throne, the crown prince broke his leg while riding a horse, and he could only sit in a wheelchair for life, and the third prince spent all day drinking. Even so, there was no shortage of dark guards around them. My father has too many students and the relationship is complicated, I don't retreat, Pei Shengyuan will deal with me next. The father has no son, only you have a daughter, and he only wants you to be happy. I step back to preserve your happiness! Let him let go of his suspicions about you. ”
Yang Mubai seemed to understand their reasons for doing so, but he couldn't forget the harm they had caused.
Father Yang said in a low voice: "It's just that I didn't expect him to poison you in order to prevent me." Fortunately, there is still time, and Dr. Ye said that after a few more years of conditioning, your body can still recover. You can rest assured, with your father here, you will never be wronged again in the future. This time, it was my father who looked away, and according to your relationship, he thought that he had fallen in love with you, but he blamed the emperor for being too ruthless. ”
Yang Mubai waved his hand, this old fox, I let you say all the good things, what else can I do, my father, I can only forgive him!
After three months, the locust plague was cured, and the treasury suffered a lot of losses, but the people were well resettled, and they were highly praised. It's just that there has been no news of a new successor in the palace for a long time, or maybe it's because of the locust plague.
Yang Mubai is very low-key at home, and the servants all know Yang Mubai, so she is basically in Yang's mother's room, as a personal maid, and she can't go out of the outer courtyard. It's no problem to eat and wear, but I'm always stuffy in the room, I'm still bored, and I love to eat, no, I have a few pounds of meat on my body. Fortunately, Zhang Shan followed Yang Chunhua's portrait and made a human skin mask. Wearing a mask and wearing thicker soles, there is no doubt that Chen Chunhua looks like her. I didn't even recognize the Yang family's family, this time, I can go out to play freely!
She and Zhang Shan took a few people to ride horses for a long time, and then went to hunt some game, roasted and eaten, and then went home when it was dark.
Yang Mubai didn't have a feeling of rebirth until today. The feeling of freedom is really great, and the sky has become more lovely, and it is pleasant to see everywhere. Take control of your future life and say goodbye to your past self. In the future, the old lady will be Chen Chunhua (although the name is earthy, laughing, there is no connotation)
